PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for making an LNG having a high calorific value have low calories, with which the calorific value of the LNG is readily and inexpensively adjusted without deteriorating the combustion characteristic of the LNG and the LNG is shipped, and an apparatus thereof. SOLUTION: In adjusting the LNG, which is concentrated in a low-temperature storage tank 11 and made into a heavy LNG, to a gas having a fixed calorific value and supplying the gas to a consumption system, the LNG discharged from the low-temperature storage tank 11 is heated by a carburetor 18 and vaporized, the vaporized gas is mixed with the LNG discharged from the low-temperature storage tank 11 by a first line mixer 19, the temperature of the mixture is adjusted, the mixture is introduced into a gas-liquid separator 14, separated into a gas and a liquid and the gas of light component separated by the gas-liquid separator is supplied by a gas line 20 to the consumption system.
